I cannot commend Kirkton Vets and in particular Beth highly enough! Our dog mysteriously fell ill with vomiting and they were responsive and accommodating to our urgent request for help as she clearly wasn't right. Once there they made her comfortable and performed many tests to try and find what was wrong. They were responsive, professional and informative in phone calls, kept us updated with a variety of options how to proceed, and were open and honest with the delicate matter of ongoing costs. Unfortunately it came to a stage we had to let her go, and they were so accommodating and supportive, allowing our family to come and say goodbye in our own way after hours. It was a very hard time for us but made much easier by the kindness and brilliant professional attitude of Beth and all the Kirkton team, thanks a mil. RIP Lexi ❤️

I've had such a great experience with the vets at Kirkton. From the dog and cats needing normal care to emergency staples for a hen and on site help for a ghost with mastitis. They are always clear and careful with the animals and it is evident they care about both the animals and the owners. They've been with me through a serious health scare for a cat and kept in touch even over the Christmas holidays. They are friendly and helpful at reception and keep things moving quickly. Prices are competitive for the area as well. Highly recommend Kirkton.

Me and Shkipoo are very grateful for the dental surgery that was performed in November! Thank you so much for the care, professionalism and support! He is an older non-insured pup, so the fact that the remarkable quality and attention came with the affordable price was a pleasant surprise. Wishing you and your team all the success and praise it deserves!
